Abstract

Mathematics Mathematics, Applied Physical Sciences Science & Technology
The equations of two dimensional incompressible steady micro-polar fluid flows through a porous medium are studied. Lie group analysis is employed and the solutions corresponding to the translational symmetry are developed. A boundary value problem is investigated and the results are sketched graphically. The effect on the flow of the porosity coefficient of the porous medium and the micro-polar parameters are observed.
